hondo in seattle Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Former Steeler CB ranks T.White in the Top Ten of NFL cornerbacks... RANK 9 Tre'Davious White, Bills I love the way the rookie is playing. He understands the ebb and flow of a player's first season in the NFL, but it's not deteriorating his mindset. After a big performance against the Patriots last week, which included picking off Tom Brady, he's going to have to watch out for the deep ball vs. Indy's T.Y. Hilton. While I've also been impressed with White's play as a rookie, I wouldn't have expected national media guys to rank him in the Top Ten. Thoughts?

BuffAlone Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 He's done a fine job as a rook. Let's see him do it again next year before stating he's a top 10 tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 He’s not far from a top 10 guy. It’s crazy to think that he isn’t even the top rookie at the position. Tre has been a home run though!! The Bills turned the 10th pick in the draft into a pro bowl cb and a top 20 pick the following year. Even Bill in NYC can’t hate it!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRE’DAVIOUS WHITE, CB, BUFFALO BILLS PFF Grade: 90.5 PFF Elite Stat: White has allowed a reception just once per every 14.5 snaps he’s spent in coverage, tied for the 14th-best rate out of 119 qualified cornerbacks. White has officially joined the illustrious PFF Elite Club as he’s one of just 35 players to own an elite overall grade after 13 weeks of the season. The first-round pick has graded below 70.0 in just one game all season and he’s really turned it on as of late, finishing three of his last four games with grades north of 80.0 (he’s finished seven games this season with a grade of at least 80.0). White has been directly responsible (whether it be via pass breakup, interception, hitting a receiver and knocking the ball loose, proximity of his coverage) for an incompletion on 23.8 percent of the targets thrown into his coverage, the second-best rate among the 32 cornerbacks who’ve spent at least 400 snaps in coverage this year. White jumps over Lattimore this week because even though Lattimore has a slightly higher grade, both have been elite, and White has been on the field for 334 more snaps. https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/pro-2017-nfl-rookie-rankings-through-week-13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBills808 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Not for me. I like the kid, but I liked Darby a lot too his rookie year and he slumped quite a bit the next season. Give the kid a chance to put two or three good years together before we start talking top ten. Sherman Norman Slay Peterson Harris Jr Rhodes Bouye Hayward Peters Trufant I think those guys are the top ten right now. Before Haden and Jimmy Smith got injured they would have been up there too.

Will go down as best in team history barring injury I think that’s a bit far fetched. Better than Bruce Smith, Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, andre reed? Better than Kyle Williams in the 5th? He’s a very ,very good player and one day may be in the HoF, but I don’t think he’ll ever be regarded as the best Bills draft pick ever. For them him to become the best, we’ll have to win a SB with him as a top 3 player on the team. Could happen I suppose, but very doubtful imo 56 minutes ago, GoBills808 said: Not for me.

I'd still take White, who doesn't benefit from the pass rush Lattimore does, and the draft pick, which they, and not the Browns, will be picking.

Cant play if you dont have a ticket they say Even if you take the pick at just face value and do not include the 1st rounder (lets keep in mind here KC is free falling) its still a great pick.......we picked Gilmore much higher and Gilmore did not look this good his rookie year. 9 minutes ago, Jamie Muellers Ghost said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
